## The Problem

For Estate & Gift Tax clients, the 13-week cash forecast gets rebuilt by hand each Monday — pulling from Lacerte, AR aging, AP aging, and scheduled payroll — and it's stale by Wednesday.

## What We Build in SmartVault

AI rebuilds the 13-week forecast nightly from live data, flags any week projected to go below minimum cash, and emails the owner with recommended actions — the forecast is always current. Purpose-built for teams running SmartVault — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## SmartVault Integration Approach

1. **Audit your SmartVault configuration.** We map the specific SmartVault objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your estate & gift tax practice.
2. **Build on the SmartVault API or agent.** Integration happens inside SmartVault — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in SmartVault with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
